Both drinks were enjoyed immensely, but for our two tasters the Guinness Draught came out on top. Could we tell the Guinness 0.0 from the Guinness Draught? Aroma- what did the drink smell like? What scents came through more than others? Did the aroma make you want to drink it? The novice Guinness drinker mostly thought that the Guinness 0.0 was the Guinness Draught and that the Guinness Draught was the Guinness 0.0, but they were nonetheless able to notice that the two drinks were slightly different. Eazy Peazy from @amundsenbrewery . Aroma is full on tropical - juicy mango and pineapple, citrus orange, resinous pine. Tropical fruit sweetness when we taste, with more citrus coming through and bringing in the bitterness, along with some earthy notes free-beer.co.uk/amundsen-eaz… @FreeBeer_UK - Jul 20
Stout - Guinness Draught 0.0%, Can 440 ml x 24 | Matthew Clark
Worth noting: as we discovered, you'll need more than one can of Guinness 0.0 to fill the iconic pint glass as each can is 440ml. Now without alcohol, Guinness 0.0 is the iconic, best-selling stout beer, with groundbreaking innovation right at its ruby-red heart. The Guinness brewers have worked tirelessly to ensure that Guinness 0.0 retains the beautifully smooth, cool and dark taste of Guinness. The alcohol is removed, but the distinctive character of Guinness remains just like Guinness, Guinness 0.0 is dark ruby red with a creamy head, with hints of chocolate and coffee, and is smoothly balanced with bitter, sweet, roasted notes. Appearance- did the drink look appealing? Was there clear separation between the dark body and the creamy white head? Did it look flat or lively?Our tasters thought Guinness has done an excellent job of replicating Guinness Draught with its Guinness 0.0, though on a blind tasting both tasters found that they slightly preferred the Guinness Draught. Svart/Hvit from @nogneo . Treacle, coffee, roasted malts and vanilla on the nose, restrained bitterness with more roasted grains, coffee and a slight caramel sweetness as we taste. Lovely hefty body. Could easily pass for a full-fat stout free-beer.co.uk/nogne-o-svar… #alcoholfree @FreeBeer_UK - Sep 5 Both tasters identified small nuances that enabled them to distinguish two different drinks, but the regular Guinness drinker was the one who could consistently tell which one was the Guinness Draught.
Guinness 0.0: Non-Alcoholic Beer with Our Iconic Taste Guinness 0.0: Non-Alcoholic Beer with Our Iconic Taste
Overall both of our tasters found Guinness 0.0 a delightful alternative to Guinness Draught. Veteran Guinness drinkers will most likely be able to tell which is which, but as alcohol-free alternatives go, our tasters thought Guinness is onto a winner with the 0.0.Taste- how enjoyable was the flavour of the drink? How strong or rich was it? What flavours came through strongest? Did it make you want to take another sip? After tasting each pair of drinks, both tasters were asked to choose whether they thought each drink was Guinness 0.0 or Guinness Draught. Introducing Guinness 0.0, our non-alcoholic beer with the same beautifully smooth taste, perfectly balanced flavour and unique dark colour of Guinness, without the alcohol. Brewed with our new cold filtration process. This ensures you get the same beautifully smooth taste, perfectly balanced flavour and unique dark colour of Guinness Draught, just without the alcohol. The latest in 250 years of innovation, Guinness 0.0 is specially brewed to retain the characteristic flavours which make Guinness Draught our most popular beer. The brewing process starts just as it always has, but with Guinness 0.0 the alcohol is gently removed through a cold filtration method. This helps to preserve its natural flavour, ensuring that the all-important sweetness of the malt, the bitterness of the hops and the unique Guinness Roasted Barley flavours are all perfectly balanced. On the all-important matter of taste, both tasters were very impressed by the flavours of both drinks. Coffee and dark chocolate came through stronger again in the Guinness 0.0, whereas malt and hops were found to be more present in the Guinness Draught.
Guinness 0.0: could we tell alcohol-free Guinness from the Guinness 0.0: could we tell alcohol-free Guinness from the
For our blind tasting two testers, one a regular Guinness drinker and the other a Guinness novice, poured glasses of each drink for each other without revealing which was the Guinness 0.0 and which was the Guinness Draught. The aroma of the Guinness 0.0 was judged to be stronger than that of the Guinness Draught, our tasters found. Sweet and malty scents of coffee and dark chocolate were pleasantly identified in the 0.0, whereas the Draught, although similar, had a milder aroma overall. The tasters rated both Guinness types highly in appearance, with the characteristic dark and ruby body and creamy white head appealing to tasters in equal measure.
We're sorry!
Lifted High Protein Lager from Lifted Brewing. Surprisingly clear considering the protein in it - 10g per can! Bready malts and stone fruits on the nose, and a malty taste which grows into a citrus bitterness. The body has more heft than your usual lager free-beer.co.uk/lifted-lager… @FreeBeer_UK - Jul 28 Cheers Mind pale ale from @fierceandnoble . Bready malts, peppery spice and grapefruit citrus on the nose. Bitterness when we taste, grapefruit citrus and earthy pine, this carries on through the drink. Some tropical and stone fruit manages to peek through free-beer.co.uk/fierce-noble… @FreeBeer_UK - Aug 11
